Parham is one of the six administrative districts of the Caribbean island nation of Antigua and Barbuda, located on the northeastern coast of the main island of Antigua. The district is centered on Parham Harbor, northeast of the city of St. John's, and has important maritime and tourism functions.
Parham is located on the northeastern coast of the island of Antigua, adjacent to the capital city of St. John's, and has a natural deep-water harbor, Parham Harbor. The region is dominated by coastal plains, with some areas retaining tropical vegetation, and has a tropical maritime climate that is warm and humid throughout the year.
Parham Harbour is one of Antigua's main cargo ports, carrying both container and bulk cargo. Surrounded by resorts and marinas, it is an important stopping point for Caribbean cruise lines. The local economy is based on maritime services, tourism and hospitality, and fishing.
Parham's predominantly Afro-Caribbean population retains traditional West Indies culture and participates in annual celebrations such as the Antigua Carnival. The community is small and the pace of life is relaxed, reflecting a typical Caribbean island lifestyle.
